• 2015:20 Guide for thyroid monitoring in the event of release of radioactive iodine in a nuclear emergency

  This report aims to serve as a guide in the execution of a thyroid monitoring program during the intermediate phase of response to a nuclear emergency. Calibration factors for some instruments verified in the framework of the Nordic project THY- ROID (Nyander P. 2014) are listed here as an example. For different times after the intake, we present in this guide the measured values in net count...

• 2015:08 Technical Note, Rheological properties of the Bentonite Buffer

  Rheological properties for bentonite at high densities The properties of bentonite at high densities are extremely important and it appears as it has been to a certain extent well researched and understood, although further investigations regarding swelling of the bentonite would be welcome. What, however, seems to be missing is a comprehensive constitutive model capturing all the different...

• 2015:19 Recent Research on EMF and Health Risk - Tenth report from SSM’s Scientific Council on Electromagnetic Fields, 2015

  The objective of the report is to cover the previous year’s research in the area of electromagnetic fields (EMF). The report gives the Authority an overview and provides an important basis for risk assessment. The Swedish Radiation Safety Authority’s (SSM) scientific council monitors the current research situation and provides the Authority with advice on the assessment of risks,...

• 2015:30 Technical Note, Rock Mechanics - Assessing the likelihood and extent of fracture growth in the KBS-3 repository at Forsmark

  This review work concerns the evaluation of the likelihood and extent of fracture growth around the deposition tunnels and holes of the planned KBS-3 repository at Forsmark. The issues of the isostatic, shear and thermal loading concerning the stability and evolution of rock fractures around the KBS-3 repository at Forsmark are addressed. Hereby, the thermal, glacial and earthquake scenarios...

• 2013:37 Technical Note, Rock Mechanics – Evolution of fracture transmissivity within different scenarios in SR-Site – Main Review Phase

  The current review assignment consists of a literature review and independent modeling for assessing the importance of fracture transmissivity change especially driven by shear loading due to SKB’s thermal, glacial and earthquake loading scenarios for the KBS-3 repository at Forsmark. In the first part of the report, SKB’s laboratory experiments on shear fracture dilation and extensive...

• 2015:18 Uranium Aerosol Characteristics at a Nuclear Fuel Manufacturing Site - Particle Size, Morphology and Chemical Composition

  Vid alla kärntekniska verksamheter krävs att strålningsmiljön kontrolleras dels genom mätningar av ytors- och luftens kontamination i anläggningen och dels med persondosimetriverksamhet inkluderat helkroppsmätning. De olika metoder som används för att beräkna intecknad effektiv stråldos från kontinuerligt intag via inandning är förknippade...

• 2015:50 Assessment of structures subject to concrete pathologies (ASCET)

  Many Nuclear Power Plants around the world are at the moment approaching, or in, their Long Term Operation stage of their operational phase. In addition, several NPPs have recently been carrying out uprate and life extension projects and comprehensive maintenance work including the exchange of components important to safety, in order to extend their lifetime. As a result, ageing management...
